InDesign Server CC

We seek to develop a Windows Service application using the InDesign SDK.  With the current version of InDesign CC, we can this because the application must run in user interface mode once a user logged on to Windows.  InDesign Server would meet our needs (the user doesn't have to log Windows to run the application), but it is only available in CS6.  From what we understand, we cannot mix CC InDesign and InDesign Server CS6 as it is impossible to open the INDD file saved with CC with CS6.  There will be a CC of InDesign Server version?

We will also seek to create another Windows Service application that interacts with PhotoShop.  Do you know if PhotoShop has the same restrictions as InDesign in terms of having to log Windows using the application via the SDK?

Thank you

Jody

Trial of CC InDesign Server is available.

You can try it for three months.

    I am trying to download InDesign Server CC 2014 Windows 64-bit edition

    All I can find is 2015 which doesn't have a QA of our application process and therefore is not an option.

    The media would be identical to the version of watermark. If you have that you would apply to the key. The one that you bought, media should be otherwise. If this isn't the case, please contact me off list.

  • "Whereas unity" during the assignment of the width of column on InDesign Server 2015

    I am currently transfer my InDesign scripts to run on InDesign Server 2015, so far all worked well, so far.

    When I try to assign a width of a column, I get the following error:

    Error string: invalid value for the set 'width' property Unit expected, but received "1.058 mm".

    The code looks like this (listTable is my table object and iEigCol a counter in a loop for, so nothing out of the ordinary):

    var spacerColumnWidth = 1.058;
    listTable.columns[iEigCol].width = spacerColumnWidth + 'mm';
    

    A few lines earlier, I use this:

    listTable.columns[0].width = '82mm';
    

    Which works very well.

    I already tried these approaches instead:

    • By simply using the number without unit
    • Using an integer instead of a double
    • Concatenating the string before using to assign width
    • With the help of a literal string

    so far nothing worked here. Strange thing is that he works on dozens of other columns with the one of the ways mentioned to do.

    The exact same script also works very well to InDesign CS5.5.

    Any ideas what the problem may be?

    Thank you very much!

    InDesign does not set a table column width or row height under 1.058 mm (not even in the script). And in the scripts, it will not let you define under 1,059 mm. Try to work with 1,059 mm, and it should work.

  • Where can I get a list of the error codes for InDesign server

    I use InDesign server to the process that a lot of jobs and could not find a list of error codes generated by InDesign Server. Specifically, I'm looking for error codes generated in cases where the InDesign customer seem to have made a mistake. To give an analogy, the Apache HTTP Server generates class 4xx Code of the status each time the client seems to have erred. Is there a list of error codes similar for InDesign server.

    For example:, I wrote a work to convert .indd idml files and voluntarily gave a corrupt .indd file to convert. I got the following response code.

    Error code: 29441

    Error message: could not open the file "corrupt_file.indd". Adobe InDesign Server can not supported file format, a plug-in that supports the file format is may be missing, or the file may be open in another application.

    I couldn't find a reference to the error code 29441 in the Adobe documentation. All leads or references?

  • InDesign Server Automation

    I'm looking into buying features to automate InDesign Server for the document. A feature, data fusion, would be invaluable to our society.

    I'm having a few difficulties of implementation with a script.

    Here's what I have running, just a basic test.

    var myDocument = app.open(File("C:\\inetpub\\wwwroot\\indesign\\test.indd"));
    
    
    with (app.dataMergeOptions) {
    linkImages = true;
    removeBlankLines = false;
    createNewDocument = true;
    documentSize = 100;
    } // (end of dataMergeOptions)
    
    
    myDocument.dataMergeProperties.mergeRecords();
    myDocument.exportFile(ExportFormat.PDF_TYPE, File ("c:\\inetpub\\wwwroot\\indesign\\merged.pdf"));
    myDocument.close ();
    

    In the file I had bound him to a csv file that pulled data but it seems that the link has been broken (or obsolete according to the error).

    Can someone help me with what I'm doing wrong, or even to give a better method?

    I run the script through PHP via SOAP in IIS running on Windows 2008 R2

    InDesign Server CC 2014

    Hello

    What you might try is to recover the path of your CSV file within this document and to check first if the internal path is compatible with what you expect.

    Second, you could reprocess the source csv file when opening the document with Document.dataMergeProperties.selectDataSource (your csv file full path)

    Finally, I see that you are trying to use "createNewDocument = true;". " From what I've observed, tweaking this property seems to have no effect (true/false-online not differentiated).

    The basic with DataMerge is therefore that the appellant 'merge()' will lead to one or more temporary merged documents. These I guesss you want to export.

    At this point, you can either choose any document created to export OR call the method "Document.dataMergeProperties.exportFile ()" that will deal with merging documents and make exports.

    Also, given that you are considering datamerge, I can recommend also drop a look at EasyCatalog. It's more expensive, but also very powerful when it comes to fill data into InDesign automatically based on templates.

    Good luck and feel free to test any single object before using

  • CC of InDesign Server 2014 app.open (file) does not exist.

    I have implemented CC InDesign Server on a Windows Server 2008 R2 trial 2014 and try to run a simple script that converts an idml to PDF format.

    Here is the code

    document = app.open(File("C:\inetpub\wwwroot\presentation\Documents\Resumes.idml"));
    document.exportFile(ExportFormat.PDF_TYPE, File ("C:\inetpub\wwwroot\presentation\Documents\file.pdf"));
    document.close();
    

    I am running the script in ExtendScript Toolkit CC and it impedes every time on the first line, the open() method.

    I checked the path and permissions are fine as the other scripts work that write output, like this.

    //HelloWorld.jsx
    //Create a new document.
    var myDocument = app.documents.add();
    //Get a reference to the first page.
    var myPage = myDocument.pages.item(0);
    //Create a text frame.
    var myTextFrame = myPage.textFrames.add();
    //Specify the size and shape of the text frame.
    myTextFrame.geometricBounds = ["6p0", "6p0", "18p0", "18p0"];
    //Enter text in the text frame.
    myTextFrame.contents = "Hello World!";
    //Save the document (fill in a valid file path).
    myDocument.save(new File("/c/HelloWorld.indd"));
    //Close the document.
    app.documents.item(0).close();
    

    No problem at all with this script.

  • InDesign server web service - where is the support to download a file with the script and download the result?

    Hello

    I'm working on a VINE which is supposed to convert indd files in pdf format (that is, using of course the indesign server). Basically, I want to call the Web Service of IDS (located on another machine, perhaps), spend in the input file, the conversion script and retrieve the result under the WebService call?

    Navigation on the documentation, examples, etc. in the SDK, I couldn't see how the above can be achieved unless the client manages the transfer of files. Surely I must be missing something...

    Thank you

    Chris

    What do you mean by POC?

    InDesign Server is too valuable (i.e. cost of the license) to waste his time with file transfers.

    For a smaller scale, letting a separate process (http or smb server) on the same server hardware files - InDesign Server providing access on the local volume faster.

    If you are planning for bigger, use a dedicated server for file sharing (at the choice of the SMB, NFS, or other), when the input files are prepared by the process of the client, so that your load balancing program can immediately point the next free instance of the InDesign Server farm to the file. In this case, be prepared for some trial and error - high-speed file sharing can be tricky with files written on one side not yet visible or incomplete on the other side, locking problems, filename Unicode trouble, unexpected time and so on.

    BTW, there is also a forum of InDesign Server which would be more suitable for these discussions.

    Hi all

    I need to use this color setting 'Emulate Adode InDesign 2.0 CMC Off' on InDesign Server. I found that my current setting (app.colorSettings. cmsSettings) is "Custom", of the app.colorSettings.cmsSettingsList I see I have the list of available options:

    • General-purpose Europe 3
    • Prepress Europe 3
    • Europe Web/Internet, color monitor

    • Internet/Web Japan
    • General use in 2 North America
    • Journal of the North American
    • America prepress 2
    • Internet/Web in North America

    I know how to change the setting in InDesign ('Edit', then 'color settings' and then change the setting to "Imiter Adode InDesign 2.0 CMC Off"). How this can be done on InDesign Server?

  • Generator of newspapers to InDesign: IDML or InDesign Server?

    Hello!

    I create a lib to generate the log to the IDML/InDesign format.

    This library already outputs the log using PDFLib, giving control us all (in points) about what is to be drawn.

    In our version IDML search engine, we face with TextFrame and stories, but I don't have the same control as PDFLib.

    I don't know if my story fits into the TextFrame, I don't know if I need to resize or create a new TextFrame bound for printing to keep the same story in the next column.

    Because the final library will be used on a server, I need I use InDesign Server to generate?

    I can self-adjustment executives related, jumping to the new column to keep printing, (etc.)?

    Or this control is possible by simply using pure IDML?

    Thank you

    You can find the InDesign scripting docs at http://www.adobe.com/products/indesign/extend.displayTab2.html#Scriptingresources (to http://www.adobe.com/devnet/indesign/documentation.html#idscripting but which also omits the common things to the rest of the creative suite) and Jongware has some excellent references additional APIs extracted InDesign to http://jongware.com/idjshelp.html. If you read the SDK documentation, you will find them quite a breath of fresh air; they are targeted at end users learn to write scripts, not to C++ developers, and they are much more pleasant to taste.

    Theoretically, you can store anything you want within an IDML file. But normally, no.. An InDesign script can be written in JavaScript for platform independence towards, or in VBScript on Windows and Applescript under OS X. in general, they are stored in the filesystem in a Scripts / folder and InDesign makes available in the actions panel this folder and the user chooses a script of this Panel while InDesign is running and then InDesign will run the script. There is also a Startup Scripts folder, which may contain scripts that are executed at startup of InDesign. There is no possibility for a document (IDML or INDD or otherwise) for the exploitation of a script that runs when the document is opened (this has implications of poor security...), if a script existing that is running (start or not) can listen to an event triggered by opening a document and can act accordingly. Or an existing script cannot open a document. Some people use a paradigm where scripts run from script code that lives inside a document, as in a specially designated textframe or a script label. But this is not common.

    So you could certainly put most of your script in an IDML file and have a charger small script that the user runs that evaluates the script that you have included in the IDML file. Or more of similar models.

    If you have the file BCTI by history, you can ask (although scripting) the InDesign API to place each story on your network, and can react adaptable engine decisions makes the layout and based on these results, decide how to place the following story. If you include all of your stories within the main IDML file, I think that will be dealing with the unexpected difficulties. I think that InDesign expects stories inside a file IDML to appear in the linked text frames. But I could be wrong on this subject... I don't have much experience with the help of IDML the way you think about it. Most of my experience IDML is about IDML reading that ID has generated, not generating IDML customized for her. (Certainly, you can have stories placed in frames of related texts that do not account for the length of history, for purposes of placeholding - such as frames are in excess. And then you can adjust them later. I suspect nail down who will use is not very important for the development of your software. It could make a big difference in ease of use or its packaging later, but not really in the implementation.)

    You can associate arbitrary key/value pairs with objects in the DOM script, using the methods . insertLabel() and . extractLabel() . These appear as the elements in the IDML. Alternatively, you can store XML data in the IDML file as if you had imported XML into your InDesign document and then analyze that however you like. You can also simply read an XML raw with your script file and do what you want with it. So, Yes, you can store extra metadata in a variety of forms ranging from reasonably structured with the ID of object model for completely outside of it.

    You should certainly be able to have inline (anchored?) with a history of ICML tables, and I'm not really sure of graphics. You'll have to see! I see a lot of experience in your future. On the other hand, maybe someone else who is quite knowledgeable about IDML will appear in this thread...

  • InDesign Server vs Indesign for COM programming

    Hello

    I am currently using COM Indesign and VB.NET interface to automate Indesign.  I was considering upgrading to Indesign server, but another to be able to launch multiple instances of server, I can't find very many advantages.  Has anyone else done (or considered as) the switch?

    Thank you

    Well, there are some technique and also technical benefits:

    1. a permit. When you purchase InDesign regular desktop license you do not allowed for use in Server mode. License Office such prohibts explicitly use, and you must buy InDesign Server

    2 integration. Using InDesign Server, you can access integration API for Java and CORBA. For large systems which can be more than desirable.

    3 64 - bit perforormance (on Windows). CS5 Server is available in 64-bit version for Windows, which means that you can use more than 2 GB of memory. This may mean a considerable acceleration.

  • XHTML for digital editions on Indesign Server

    Hi all

    I have a problem exporting to ePub on an Indesign server.

    I tried to look in the "XHTML for digital editions" - files in indesign CS4 and CS5 facilities, but it is seems protected jsxbin. It looks like a 'black box' - delivery.

    My next step was the "Indesign server sdk" that has a fine example, called "DigitalEditionsSample.jsx".

    That works well in the indesign product, but I had no luck with the server version.

    It keeps telling me that there is a problem with "layoutwindows". I know that "layoutwindows" are not available in the version of the server. But the "layoutwindows" are called somewhere in the OEBExporter and it's still a jsxbin.

    Is there a solution to my problem?

    Where can I get just the scripts instead of the jsxbin?

    Thanks for your reply,

    Glen

    If you download the full SDK for CS4/CS5, you can get them (and many more (much, much more)).

    Attention however: on a scale of Javascript experience of 1 to 10, it would measure about 8 - it is quite advanced. But on a scale of InDesign scripting, they turn off the chart - the writer used all possible stuff available in the DOM of InDesign to speed things up.
